Brazoswood moved into the consolation bracket after falling to eventual tournament champion Port Neches-Groves 15-8, 15-8 in the first round.

"I was very satisfied with our play," Brazoswood coach Sharon Johnson said. "I'm very excited about the season and things are definitely on the upswing for us."

Brazoswood's 6-foot-3 senior middle blocker Beth Jones was named to the Dickinson all-tournament team. She had 12 kills against South Houston and was the Lady Buccaneers' kill leader throughout the weekend, according to Johnson.

"My setter, (senior Kaitlyn Ristich), did a tremendous job all weekend, and our passing just came around all together as a team and that's what really kept us in the games," Johnson said. "If we don't pass, then there's no offense, but our passing was really good in the tournament."

The Lady Buccaneers, who also had a victory at Sweeny last week, are at Brazosport on Friday at 4:30 p.m. and open on Tuesday. Brazoswood begins District 24-5A play at league favorite and No. 2 area-ranked Clear Creek on Sept. 27 at 6:30 p.m.

"I'm still trying to find a match for Tuesday's open date, but I'm just not having any luck because a lot of teams are already into district play," Johnson said. "We also had a match with Brazosport canceled, and missing out on two matches could be costly experience-wise. We're still trying to find a match on Tuesday. Clear Creek is going to be a tremendous challenge in our first district game, and we want to be ready and have as much experience as we can going in."

The Angleton Lady Wildcats placed third at the Dickinson Tournament after defeating Santa Fe 15-13, 15-10.

Angleton also stopped South Houston 15-6, 15-10, La Marque 15-9, 15-8 and Dickinson 15-11, 11-15, 15-4 at the two-day event, and lost to Silsbee 15-11, 7-15, 15-7 in the championship bracket semifinals.

The Lady Wildcats begin District 24-4A play at home with Brazosport on Tuesday at 7 p.m.
